[QUOTE="antelopedundee, post: 2514847, member: 107384"] Powder by itself isn't explosive under ordinary conditions, but if it's in a shipment that catches on fire for other reasons, things can get nasty. Try throwing even a 1 pound plastic bottle of the stuff into you chiminea and see what happens. I expect that the fee is imposed to help offset the cost of cleaning up after spills or other incidents. Also it likely helps reduce insurance premiums for carriers. OTOH it's hard to imagine a simple scenario where a single primer in a sealed case of 5000 could could be hit hard enough to set it off. [/QUOTE]
